Since 1977, YoCream has pioneered the innovation, production and marketing of frozen yogurt, frozen desserts and frozen beverages. The Company operates a state-of-the-art production facility in Portland, Oregon, to manufacture its "true" frozen yogurt, which contains the real yogurt that is fermented and cultured on site daily.

 

YoCream’s products are characterized by great flavor and significant health benefits. The Company offers over 110 flavors of frozen yogurt, ice cream, frozen custard, sorbet, smoothies, frozen carbonated beverages, slushes and frozen drink mixes. In addition to the YoCream brand, the Company also provides other branded flavors such as Hershey’s™ (e.g. Hershey’s™ Kisses™, Reese’s™, York™, Jolly Rancher™, Twizzlers™, Bubble Yum™) and Rockstar™ under exclusive licenses.

YoCream sells its products primarily to a broad range of foodservice customers including frozen yogurt shops, marquee convenience stores, warehouse stores, quick service restaurants, colleges, healthcare facilities, restaurants, and government and military foodservice locations, international restaurants and neighborhood stores involving over 240 specialty and full line distributors in the supply chain.
